Question: My husband of 41 years, whom I love dearly, spends his entire
life (or so it seems) lost inside a newspaper or a book. We don’t have any
serious underlying problems with our relationship but we can be on an
eight-hour flight to Florida and if I didn’t try to talk to him we would
spend the whole time without speaking a word. He disappears into his own
world and can’t seem to connect with me.

This makes me feel worthless and I find myself getting envious of couples who
talk to each other. He can’t watch a television
